SCIENTISTS HAVE DISCOVERED A "JAW-DROPPING" NEW COLOUR – BUT YOU CAN'T SEE IT

U.S. scientists have discovered a new color, "olo," by using lasers to stimulate only the medium-wavelength cones in the retina—something not possible naturally. Described as a vivid blue-green, olo can't be shown on screens or seen without special equipment, making it a unique perceptual experience. Though its status as a "real" color is debated, the find offers new insight into how we see and understand color.

HOW TO WRITE ERROR MESSAGES THAT ACTUALLY HELP USERS RATHER THAN FRUSTRATE THEM

Error messages are often neglected in digital design, leading to user frustration when things go wrong due to unclear, whimsical, or inconsistent communication. To improve this, designers should anticipate possible errors, write in a clear, human, and active voice, and always provide actionable steps for users to move forward. Standardizing and documenting helpful, empathetic error patterns builds trust and creates smoother, more supportive user experiences.

WANT PEOPLE TO CARE ABOUT USERS? LAY OUT WHAT'S AT STAKE IF THEY DON'T

Effective UX storytelling starts by establishing clear stakes. It requires recognizing the key decision-makers and clarifying why the current design is inadequate. Additionally, it's essential to present the consequences of inaction. Vague data and generic processes can weaken the overall message. Engagement and action become more likely when findings are directly linked to business outcomes while conveying a sense of urgency.
